"God loves you no matter what."

Romans 8:38-39 says this: "For I am persuaded that neither life nor death, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor heighth nor death, nor any other created thing shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Jesus Christ our Lord."

I know, I know, you're right. I'm a little behind on my blogging. The past two days haven't been that exciting, but today, something beautiful happened. Something special. Something worth remembering.


This morning I woke up with one thing on my mind. I had to e-mail my Bible paper to my Mom so she could edit it for me. After doing so, I hopped in the shower because I had my speech to finish before speech class at 9. While in the shower, I realized that I hadn't gotten down on my knees and prayed like I had been doing for the past week and a half since I started my Facebook Fasting. I quickly asked God to forgive my mistake and started to pray in the shower. You can pray anytime, anywhere right? Of course you can. So, I was saying my prayer like usual and during my prayer I asked God to show me something special today as a reminder that He loves me and is there for me.


God works in mysterious ways. It was Life and Teachings time and I was sitting outside on the promenade with my group working on a worksheet for class and all of a sudden, out of nowhere, a huge group of kids came running towards us shouting things like "Jesus loves you!" and handing out bags of cookies and brownies. A little boy came up to me and said, "Want some cookies?" I smiled brightly at him and took the cookies out of his little hand and said, "Why thank you little man." He smiled and ran on.


A note was attached to these cookies in the shape of an envelope. On the front of the little envelope was scribbled "Open. SAU person." On the inside the note read: "God loves you no matter what." When I read this, my heart was instantly warmed. A HUGE smile spread across my face and I said a silent prayer of thanks to God. He answered my prayer. He used a child to share the love of Jesus with me.


I think that is just so incredible. That just goes to prove that God can use ANYONE, no matter who you are or how old you may be. This little boy was probably no older than 6 or 7 and God used Him. It was sucha blessing to be reminded that God loves me no matter what. Just because I forgot to get down on my knees and resubmit my life to Him, He still loves me. He will never stop loving me and He will never stop loving you.
